An Open Letter

To: Sen. Blumenthal, Sen. Murphy, Rep. DeLauro

From: A constituent in Guilford, CT

July 14

Palestinians need immediate aid! Palestinian Mohammed Abusalama reported about little Essam, just 1 and a half years old who needs immediate medical attention! He “weighs just 5 kilograms. He is suffering from severe malnutrition and hydrocephalus, a condition that required the placement of a shunt to drain excess fluid from his brain. Essam was born during the war at a healthy weight, but his mother's severe malnutrition left her unable to breastfeed, and his condition has steadily worsened. Doctors approved a medical referral for treatment outside Gaza, yet he remains unable to leave because the border crossings are closed. According to histamily, doctors have warned that. ana Essam's chances of survival are now extremely low unless he receives urgent specialized medical care.” How can anyone say that Essam should die?! He should live a full life! This is murder! This is not ok! He is not the only child, baby suffering or who has suffered like this! Demand immediate aid now!
